DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Reference will now be made in detail to exemplary embodiments, examplesof which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The followingdescription refers to the accompanying drawings in which the samenumbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elementsunless otherwise represented. The implementations set forth in thefollowing description of exemplary embodiments do not represent allimplementations consistent with the invention. Instead, they are merelyexamples of apparatuses and methods consistent with aspects related tothe invention as recited in the appended claims.

Consistent with some embodiments of this disclosure, a method forobtaining content of service information is provided. The method allowsa terminal device to display content of the service information before auser establishes a communication connection with the correspondinginformation provider. Further, the method does not require the user totake into account the specific discovery modes associated with thespecific information broadcast devices, and content of the serviceinformation may be presented to the user promptly for obtaining desiredservice.

A terminal device having wireless communication capabilities may beconfigured to detect service network information broadcast by variousinformation providers in a surrounding area. For example, a terminaldevice may be configured to detect a Bluetooth network broadcast by a2.4 GHz based low-power communication or a WI-FI network having aspecified Service Set Identifier (SSID) and Medium Access Control (MAC)address broadcast by a WI-FI router based on the 802.11 protocol. Theterminal device may use different information receiving devices todiscover the service networks based on the type of information broadcastdevices employed by the service providers. For example, the terminaldevice may detect the surrounding Bluetooth beacon information using theinternal Bluetooth module so as to receive the broadcast Bluetoothnetwork information. As another example, the terminal device may scanthe surrounding SSIDs using the WI-FI module and connect to a WirelessLocal Area Network (WLAN) to obtain corresponding services. In thepresent disclosure, a terminal device may include a laptop with wirelessaccess apparatus (such as a wireless network card), a netbook, acellphone, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a Mobile Internet Device(MID), or the like.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart of an exemplary method 100 for obtaining contentof service information, consistent with the present disclosure. Theexemplary method 100 may be performed by a terminal device. Referring toFIG. 1, the method 100 includes the following steps.

In step S101, the terminal device detects service network informationand obtains an identifier in the detected service network information.The service network information may be provided by service informationproviders via Bluetooth, infrared, WLAN, cellular mobile communication,acoustic wave, or other wireless communication technologies. Forexample, a merchant B may set up a free WLAN service with an SSID ofAlipayFree. The terminal device may detect service network informationbroadcast by the router of the AlipayFree wireless network. For example,the service network information may include the SSID of the AlipayFreewireless network and/or device identifiers of WI-FI devices providingthe AlipayFree wireless network. The service network information maydiffer depending on the type of device providing the information. Forexample, when a Bluetooth device is adopted to broadcast the servicenetwork information, the terminal device may detect Bluetooth beaconsthat carry the service network information.

In some embodiments, the identifier identifying the service network maybe predefined. For example, the identifier may be contained in specificfields in the service network information. As another example, theidentifier may be the entire service network information or otheridentification information uniquely identified by the service networkinformation. The identifier may be set according to particular devicesor application scenarios. For example, the identifier may be theidentification information of the wireless communication network, suchas the SSID of the WLAN or Bluetooth beacon broadcast by Bluetoothdevices. As another example, the identifier may be the identificationinformation of a network device, such as the Serial Number or MACaddress of the WI-FI device providing the service network, which may beobtained when the WLAN is discovered by the terminal device.

In step S102, the terminal device determines whether the identifier inthe service network information is stored in a device database. Forexample, the terminal device may compare the identifier with a presetidentifier pre-stored in the device database. In some implementations,the identifier may be compared with each of the preset identifiers inthe device database, and if a preset identifier in the device databaseis identical with the identifier, the terminal device may determine thatthe service network information corresponding to the identifier ispre-registered or authorized for providing service information to theuser. If no preset identifier in the device database is identical withthe identifier, the terminal device may determine that the servicenetwork information corresponding to the identifier is unregistered orunauthorized and may process the information according to presetprocessing rules such as ignoring the service network information.

The preset identifier stored in the device database may includepredefined identification information of various information providerdevices, such as the Serial Number or MAC address of the WI-FI devicebroadcasting the service network information. The preset identifier mayalso include the identification information of the wireless networkproviding the service information such as a SSID of a WI-FI network, aBluetooth beacon. For example, the device database may include the MACaddress ADD_01 of a first WI-FI device of an electric appliance merchantB located at the mall entrance, the MAC address ADD_02 of a second WI-FIdevice arranged on the second floor of the mall by the electricappliance merchant B1, and the Bluetooth beacon broadcast by Bluetoothdevices of a restaurant M beside the mall. In some embodiments, thepreset identifier may also include region identification information ofa cellular mobile network such as a cell identification code of acellular mobile network.

In some implementations, the device database may be stored in aninformation data storage unit at the terminal device. The devicedatabase may also be stored in an information data storage unit locatedat a remote or dedicated server, and the terminal device may determinewhether the identifier in the service network information is stored inthe device database by exchanging information with the server.Furthermore, the device database may include other information of thebroadcasting device associated with the service network information,such as the geographic location of the broadcasting device, status ofthe broadcasting device for providing information, the correspondingservice information provider, etc.

In step S103, if it is determined that the identifier is stored in thedevice database, the terminal device obtains content of serviceinformation based on a corresponding relation between the identifier andthe content. The content of service information may subsequently beoutput and displayed on the terminal device for users to browse andselect.

In some embodiments, the content corresponding to the identifier may bepreset, and may include one or more pieces of information. For example,the content of service information may include promotions, offers,information display, free internet access for specified applications,etc. Table 1 illustrates an example corresponding relation between thepreset identifiers and the content.

TABLE 1 Corresponding relation between preset identifier and content ofservice information Preset identifiers Content of service informationADD_01 Download application of B1 to watch a movie for 1 Yuan ADD_02Purchase electric appliances on C1 to enjoy 15 percent discount ADD_03Receive 50 percent off coupons of restaurant M on Street 1 ADD_04Payment by Alipay and Tenpay is accepted in all merchant of mall B2ADD_B01 Enjoy two hours of free parking by a purchase of 50 Yuan in mallB3 Mall B3 supports “Didi Taxi” ADD_05 Taobao shopping may be enjoyed inthis area with free data traffic up to 200M

FIG. 2 is a flowchart of another exemplary method 200 for obtainingcontent of service information, consistent with the present disclosure.The exemplary method 200 may be performed by a terminal device.
